    It's probably because they're champagne bottles. Getting that sort of bottle made especially for beer would probably be hideously expensive.

    In Cantillon on bottling day I was quite surprised that the delivery of fresh empties were all just standard champagne bottles from a French manufacturer.

    Yea true as i think the big ones are all hand blown and champagne/ sparkling wine is probable the biggest consumes of such bottles
